Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
FOOT STANCE over ROD SPURTING UPWARD with ORIFICE
…or: FEET IN SOME SORT OF STANCE, NOT WALKING BUT USING LEGS, FOOT USE WHILE INVERTED with CLITORIS, CLITORIS-SHAPED, MINIATURE, FEMALE GENITALIA, THE BEAN, SACRIFICIAL VESSEL, TROPHY, PRIZE
Formerly「clitoris meat pulled」or「clitoris meat in lordosis position」or「clitoris between spread feet meat」(): removing the outer skin, causing entry on an official register, being promoted and mounted, ascending social status, attending to one's duty by climbing onto the lord, entrance into a new world, applying pressure using a foot, being mounted, hoppin' on, climbing aboard…all seem to be describing the ascent of a new concubine into the harem after training: carrying a「clitoris, prized booty」with「clever bound feet for spurting」to the owner, lord and master for deflowering in his private bed chamber, igniting the lord's flaming heat, starting to climb the ladder of success, and so on. Be sure to see
 Some scholars explain that the original form added「two hands」at the bottom of the glyph (but now have disappeared they explain), and that meant「being carried to have the outer skin removed….」Described as a stance threshing hulls from dry soybeans by stepping upon them, a duty of Chinese farmers for at least the past 3,000 years (or so the explanation goes). Other scholars say this is a servant carrying a cooking pot full of beans up a flight of stairs to a bed chamber in his two hands, but who eats beans in bed? wouldn't most folks prefer concubine in bed, and beans at the dining table? perhaps needless to mention, but other meanings listed cannot be explained by applying the elements as a 'pot of beans.'

Modern definitions (that generally disregard history) …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may list only pigeonholed definitions, euphemisms, or meaningless mnemonics)
Chinese: to scale (a height); to ascend; to mount; to publish or record; to enter (e.g. in a register); to press down with the foot; to step or tread on; to put on (shoes or trousers) (dialect); to be gathered and taken to the threshing ground (old)
Japanese: ascent, climbing, ascending, northward, to ascend, to go up, to climb, to rise, to go to, to be promoted, to add up to, to advance, to swim up, to sail up, to come up
Unihan extended: rise, mount, board, climb
EDRDG: ascend; climb up

Used within names (nanori)
たか ・ のぼし ・ のぼり ・ のり

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system. Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
